"NOTHING BUT LEAVES."
Nnlhlngbnt leav-j; the spirit grieves
Ovsr a wasted life;
Bin oooimitted while condolence slept;
PromifM made but never kept; '
Hatred, battle and strife; . ; i
Kotuing but leaves I
Nothing bat lsaves; no gsrnered sheaves
Dl'life1! fair ripening grain;
Worts, idle words, for earnest deeds;
We sow oar teed lo I tareaaud weeds;
We reap with toil and pain , , ,
Uotblng but leaves. ' ' "
Nothing; bnt leaves; memory weaves ..
No vatl to acreen the put;
As ws trace onr wear? way,
Counting each lost and misspent day,
Wsilud sadly at last,
nothing but leaves.
And we shall meet the Matter to,
Hearing our withered leaves 1
The Bavlonr looks for porfeet fruit
V e stand before Him humble, mute;
Waiting the word he breathes
nothing bnt leaves.
- Tim Changes of, England in Eighty
Years. Leisure is gone gone where the
spinning-wheels are gone, and the pack
horses, and the Blow wagons, and the ped
dler who brought bargains to the door on
sunny afternoons. Ingenious philosopher
tell you, perhaps, that the great works of
the stoam-engine ia to oreate leisure for
mankind. Do not believe them; it only
creates a vacuum for eager thought to
rush in. Even idleness ia eager now
eager for amusement, prone to ezeursion
trains, art-museums, periodicals, litera
ture, and exciting novels; prone even to
scientific theorizing and cursory peeps
through microscopes. Old leisure was
quite a dilferent personage; he only read
ono newspaper innocent of leisure, anil
was free from the periodicity of sensa
tions which we call post-time. He was n
contemplative, rather stout old gentlenutp,
of excellent digestion; of quiet percep
tions, undlseased by hypothesis, happy in
his inability to know the causes of thingx,
preferring the things themselves. . lit
lived chiefly in the country, among pleas
ant seats and homesteads, and was fom!
of sauntering by the fruit-tree walls, and
scenting the apricots when they, wen:
warmed by the morning sunshine, or shel
tering himself under the orchard boughs
at noon, when the summer pears were
falling. He knew nothing of week-day
services, and thought none the worse of
the sermon if it allowed him to sleep from
-the text to the blessing; liking the after
noon service best, because the prayers
were the shortest, and not ashamed to say
so; for he had an easy, jolly conscience,
broad-backed, like himself, and able t
carry a grea deal of beer and port wine,
not being made squeamish by doubts and
qualms and lofty aspirations. Life was
not a task to him, but a sinecure; he fin
gered the guineas in his pocket, and ate
his dinners, and slept the sleep of the ir
responsiblefor has h not kept np his
character by going to church on Sunday
afternoons? Fine old Leisure! Do not bit
severe upon him, and judge him by our
modern standard. He never wont to Ex
oter Hall, or heard a popular preacher,
or read tracts for the times, or "Sartor
Resartus." Adam Bede.
A Duel Financially Settled. A
Frenchman was to fight a duel with an
Amerioan; the conditions were that onu
shot should be exchanged, and the pre
cedence should go by lot The French
man got the first chance, but failed to hit
his adversary. As the Yankee lifted his
weapon the other called out
"Hold, I will buy your shot!"
All were astonished at this, but his op
ponent answered:
"How much will you give?"
"Five hundred pounds."
"Nonsense!" cried the Yankee, taking
aim at him "I am a good marksman;
you set too low a value upon yourself."
"You estimate me at too high a pride,"
said the Frenchman; " hut 1 will give you
one thousand pounds."
"Agreed! " cried the Yankee, and fun
duel was at an end.
A Yankee's Damages. A railroad ac
cidont took place awhile ago in Maine,
upon which occasion the attorney of tlie
road visited the scene of disaster, to sat
isfy the claims of the injured parties.
After paying for black eyes, bloody noses
and cracked crowns all round, at the ap
praisal of the injured, he supposed his
business over, when he was saluted by n
tall Yankee, with feet like snow Bhoes, a
bell-orowned hat, and a blue coat over
his arm, with "Well, Squire, what are
you going to allow me?" "You?" said the
attorney, "where are you hurt?" "Oh,
nowhere to speak of, Squire, but I was
most terribly scart, and I think that
worth about a dollar, the way you've been
payin' on 'em." The dollar came, of
oourse. .
Beauty of Charity. Charity embrace
the wide cirole of all possible kindness
Every good act is charity; your smiling in
your brother's face is charity; and exhorj
ation of your fellow-men to virtuous
deeds is equal to alms giving; your putting
a wanderer in the right road is charity;
your assisting the blind is charity; your
moving stones and thorns from the road
is charity; your giving water to the thirstv
is charity. A man's true wealth hereaft
er is the good he does in this world to
ins ienow-man. vnen ne dies, peoplo
will savj "What property has he left be
hind him?" But the angels will ask,
"What good deeds has he sent beforo
him?" Washington Irving.
A Short Cut to God. At a meetintr
held during the late protracted meeting
of our church in this oity, a Bailor, in re
lating the circumstances attending his
conversion, said: "I was greatly distressful
on acoount of my sins; I conversed with o
minister; I did everything I could, but
felt no better, till one day I ! read in r
newspaper a piece on 'Coming to Christ,',
in which the sinner was direoted to go t
the Savior, just as he was, without an;
further preparation. It struck me," con
tinued the son of .Neptune, as the tears
of joy rolled down his cheeks, "that wax
the short cut to the blossing, and blessed
be Ood, I tried it, and he forgave my sins
and blessed me with his love
A Doubtful Compliment to the Sex.
4 Uecently, at the Liverpool Assizes, ono ol
the barristers engaged in a' ease Which
involved some peculiar and interestinv
I em ale evidence, made the " following
observation: "The evidenoe of women
is, in somo respects, superior to that oi
men. Their power of judging of minute
details is better, and where there are. mure,
than two facts, and something is wanting,
Miey supply the deficiency. Wherover
there is room for their imagination, which
is more powerful and aelivo than that of
men, they immediately bridge the tbipg
ii or and supply the gap."

Ax Indian Troubled After Reaching
Heaven.- Away down in Maine a big
Indian was tried, convicted and fined five
dollars - for stealing. He immediately
pulled out a well-filled wallet, and counted
out the money . to Judge . Johnston, de
manding at the same time a receipt, when
the following colloquy oocurred.
Judge. "Sam, you don't want a receipt,
for it is settled on the dooket, and can
never again come up against you."
Indian "1 pay you the money; well,
givo me receipt
Judge "I tell you that you don't need
it, for it's settled on the dooket"
Indian "White man say me steal,
Judge Johnson say me steel; I say me no
steal, bnt me pay urn; now give urn re
ceipt" Judge "Well, since you insist upon it,
if you will give me a good reason for
wanting it, I will give you one."
Indian "Well, when me die, me 'spects
to go to Heaven. Werry welll when mo
gets to the gate, Peter says Go 'way
Indian, you stoat I Bays werry well,
what if 1 do; don't I pay urn? Peter says,
show urn receipt, and thon if I don't have
urn I shall be obliged to go look all
through hell to . find Judge Johnson to
prove I pay urn."
Bekoheron Saint Paul. Henry Ward
Beeoher said in a late sermon:
Paul, to whom something was nothing,
and to whom nothing on earth was very
much; who saw value in everything, and
cared not vory much for anything; who
knew every pulse of humanity, every
aspect of experiences, evory throb of joy,
every rack of anguish, everything that in
in tranquillity, everything that is in
disturbance and turmoil; to whom triumph
spared none of its experiences, and defeat
none; who lived to the full, and yet "died
deaths daily;" who was the world's wan
derer, and jot the whole world was his
household: who was abjectly poor, and
immensely rich,' who felt all the peltings
of persecution, all the wounds of hatred,
and know all tho quicksands of treachery;
triumphing over enough troubles to have
and who was superior to them all, and rode
sunk armies and empires of common
heroes. If the waves broke over him, he
shook them off his decks easily. If. they
came like mountains at him, he rose over
them, and oanie to port safe again!
There was no Homer to sing him. His
epio was to be eung in heaven. It is his
own immortal life that now rolls an eter
nal melody of joy there in numbers deep,
and joy more perfect than is possible to
any earthly sphere. To us remains his
shadow.
Devotion and Drunkenness. The laird
of Balnamoon was a truly eccentric char
acter. He joined with his drinking pro
pensities a great zeal for the Episcopal
Church, the service of which he read t
his own family with much solemnity ami
earnestness of manner. Two gentlemen,
one of them a stranger to the country,
having called pretty early one Sunday
morning, Balnamoon invited them to stay
to dinner, and as they accepted ' the invi
tation, they remained and joined in tin;
devotional exercises conducted by the
laird. The stranger was much impressed
and mentioned to his friend how highly
he esteemed the religious deportment of
their host The gentleman said nothing,
but smiled to himself at the scene which
was to follow. After dinner Balnamoon
set himself according to the custom of old
hospitablo Scottish hosts to make hit
guests as drunk as possible. The result
was, that the party spent tho evening in
a riotous debauch, and were carried to
bod by the servants at a late hour. Nest
day, when they ha'l taken leave and loll
the house, the gentleman who had intro
duced his friend asked him what bethought
of their entertainer. "Why really," he re
plied, with evident astonishment, "sic n
speeat o' praying,- and sic a speeat o'
drinking, 1 never knew ia the whole course
of my life." Dean Kamsay,s EeminiB
conoes. Henry Ward Beecher's Idea of a
Snip. A ship is the most ingenious and
mighty fabrie whieli human hands have
ever wrought Nothing else is half so
strong; neither pyramids, nor temples,
nor cathedrals of stone, which, before
printing, gave opportunity for the human
heart to express itself, gave forth the
thoughts, and the sublimest feelings anil
aspirations of the greatest thinkers. There
is not ono of these things that does not
easily full to pieces. They can be moved
by earthquakes as easily as the seed globe
of a dandelion by winds that puff at it
But a ship caught by winds, and tossed
about like a ball,' ia unharmed. It is
smitten and whirled. It is rooked on
waves as a cradle is rocked by a mother's
foot. It rears up like a frighted steed.
It plunges again like a war-horse in battle.
But though winds chase it, and storms
reach out black hands after it, and waves
for ever beat it, and it must needs roll and
plunge, it seeks its center again, and
comes upright the moment the airy hands
let go.
- An Original IIbason. Sabbath-school
Teaoher " Why was it that tho angels in
Jacob's dream, having wings, were seen
ascending and descending from Heaven
on a ladder?" "Scholar, hesitatingly "I
guess they wore moulting and couldn't
fly."
